My position on the use of presidential pardon authority is of favourability; because this was granted by the Constitution which represents the Americans desires and philosophy of how the govern should act for the citizens and states interests and dreams.
Pardons tend to be controversial because as they overlay justice decisions the President can use the pardon and offer it for a person in the purpose of fulfilling, or attend his own interest or causes. Taking advantage of pardon for personal benefits.
One actual example of a president’s use of his pardon authority was the pardon granted for Former President Richard Nixon by President Gerald Ford on September 8, 1974 regarding any crimes he could have done in Watergate Scandal.
The pardon legally relates to punishment effects for a crime (if it is offered before a conviction it prevents the penalties and disabilities and if it is after a conviction it removes them).
The emotional issues that those most personally affected by the original crime may have toward the granting of a pardon can be vary.
In the case of Nixon critics claimed the pardon to be a “corrupt bargain” and later this seems to be the cause of peoples rejection of Ford and reason of the President losing the elections of 1976. While for Nixon was a great relive and an import act this pardon Ford gave him.
The answers are as follows:
1. In the painting, the white settlers are choosing to move West, they want to hope for a better life up there and everyone in the village is moving as fast as they can.
2. The cases were Georgia was forcing the Cherokees off their land and were denying them rights. And Worcester v. Georgia was Georgia would not let non Native Americans on Native Americans land. Both of these cases relate to what is happening right now because president Trump will not let immigrants into the United States.
3. This movement is affecting our people by showing that thousands of them are dying because they barely get fed, or even have food, also they are dehydrated because the lack of water in their system, medical supplies incase they get sick from bacteria and bacteria that is not good for them they cannot solve. They want to move west where they have freedom, and will not be crowded.
4. Robert Lindeux’s purpose in this painting is to show you an idea of what life was like back then, and what is going on in this picture. He tries to help you understand the scene through his art, using body language and facial expressions.
Good luck!
